The testing of unsaturated soils requires greater care and effort
than that of saturated soils. Although unsaturated soil mechanics
has been embraced by geotechnical engineering, engineering practice
has not yet caught up as the characterization of unsaturated soils
is difficult and time-consuming, and made harder still by a lack of
standards. Laboratory Tests for Unsaturated Soils collates test
procedures to cover all laboratory tests for characterising
unsaturated soils. It covers the background, theory, test
procedures, and interpretation of test results. Each test procedure
is broken down into simple stages and described in detail. The
pitfalls of each test and the interpretation of the test results
are explained. Test data and calculation methods are given, along
with many numerical examples to illustrate the methods of
interpretation and to offer the presentation of typical results.
The book is especially useful for students and researchers who are
new to the field and provides a practical handbook for engineering
applications.
